Incoming! 4th Rolex! Addicting (and expensive!) hobby

I recently added a 4th watch to my family. The Milgauss GV black dial. I did a lot of research on here and elsewhere and figured a no-cyclops PCL watch would be the next best purchase for my humble collection. It's only been a week but INITIAL impressions: the lightening bolt hand + matte dial + no date + PCLs + no crown guards makes this watch perfect. Only complaint (so far) is that it is darn heavy!

Based on the 4 that I have...what should be the next watch?

Thank you everyone! Clearly I'm not a photographer for a living...

With my lack of photography skills, I'd be wearing a Casio if I were a photographer for a paycheck.

Perhaps a PM should be next. Diverse collection by the way.

the GV!

You now have 4 stainless steel Rolexes. I'd look to another brand or a PM Rolex.
